have you seen this ad by the salvation army? it's an incredibly touching and creative reminder of the reality and centrality of grace, which alone mends human lives. one day i'll share with you the story of how 'amazing grace' was pre-written . . . it will fascinate you. but for now, whatever kind of day you are having, know that grace is very near. the truth about you is that you are loved in the midst of your junk, your wretchedness, your sin. you are covered in grace, you only need to turn towards your Creator who is your Grace, your Salvation . . . your Hope. He will never leave you or forsake you. may His grace lighten your load, lift your burden, free your mind, heal your wound, settle your soul, and capture your attention so that your next breath is used in simple exhalation and exaltation . . . "amazing."

Thanks for that, Monty! I loved the way it was presented and how it made Amazing Grace seem so much more personal.
